Unbeknownst to me, my journey and struggle with mental health started when I was 8 years old.  I was sensitive to energy and felt what seemed like everything.  At that age I didn’t have the ability to express what I was going through.  Layer that with immigrant parents escaping poverty, just trying their best to survive and maintain their cultural ways.  The immense cultural differences, expectations, and emotions caused me to act out in all sorts of ways that were confusing and frustrating to my parents. 

I wasn’t cognitively aware of the abuse in my family, but whatever it was I know it didn’t feel good.  I began attempting suicide and acts of self-harm.  Around the same time, I also became acutely aware of the other side as they began to show themselves to me.  I was able to read energy on foreheads, palms, and auras.

Needless to say, I felt alone, like nobody understood me or loved me.  22 years of continuing to live like that brought me to my knees time and time again. After 30 years of being abused, feeling disempowered and absolutely lost in this world, desperately, I began working with energy healers of all different kinds.

As time passed I was made to see that what I thought was a curse was actually a blessing.  My empathic nature, sensitivity, inability to fit in, radical perspectives, and so-called sixth sense.  It was all a part of my life for a reason. I felt so compelled to understand more that I began extensively studying the mystical healing arts, psychology and quantum healing.

Fast forward 15 years.  I’ve received certifications in Huna, Reiki, Munay Ki, Shamanic Journeying, Spinal Energetics, CBT, NLP, EMDR, Psychedelic Assisted Therapy, and I’m enrolled in a PhD program for Integrative and Holistic Medicine.   It gives me great purpose and pleasure to facilitate healing and change in people's lives.  Walking beside them on their journey to coming back home to themselves. Remembering love, cultivating joy, and standing in their innate personal power.
